I have not bought a 45 acp round, since they started switching to small pistol primers... lucky for me, as I'm much shorter on small pistol primers than I am on large pistol primers...

I like the large primers better, as I think they get better ignition in the cold weather, & I live in MN... that & I have alot of LP primers, & am way too short of SP primers

how about you guys... which of the two do you prefer ???

( sorry I think this could have been misunderstood thinking I had extra primers, so I reworded the following )

reason I ask, is I have about 500 extra ( 45 acp cases ) that I'm planning on selling at the next local gun show, curious if everyone wants small primer pockets in their 45 cases now, or if the large pocket 45 cases will fly off my table if reasonably priced, because they have big pockets ???
